ON THE LARGEST DEGREE OF THE PARTIAL QUOTIENTS IN CONTINUED FRACTION EXPANSIONS OVER THE FIELD OF FORMAL LAURENT SERIES

Abstract

For x ∈ I, let [A1(x), A2(x), …] be the continued fraction expansions over the field of Laurent series, write Ln(x) ≔ max { deg A1(x), deg A2(x), …, deg An(x)}, which is called the largest degree of partial quotients. In this paper, we give an iterated logarithm type theorem for Ln(x), and by which, we get that for P-almost all x ∈ I, [Formula: see text]. Also the Hausdorff dimensions of the related exceptional sets are determined.
